Research Interests

Research is focused mainly on the anionic polymerization of lactams : earlier 2-pyrrolidone, later anionic polymerization of ε-caprolactam and its copolymerization with ε-caprolactone and ω-laurolactam (activity and modification of initiation systems, (co)polymerization kinetics, non-activated polymerization, CO2 as activator etc.)  Most recently we are dealing with:

  • preparation of block copolymers poly(ε-caprolactam)-block-(elastomer)- materials with increased impact strength for industrial applications
  • preparation of polyesteramides by simultaneous anionic (co)polymerization of lactams with lactones, biodegradable materials for preparation of micro- and nanofibres
  • mechanistic aspects of lactams copolymerization, especially ε-caprolactam and ω-laurolactam using different anionic initiators
  • preparation of polyamide and copolyamide nanocomposites either by exfoliated adsorption or by polymerization procedure 
  • industrial applications of lactams anionic polymerization mainly for mold casting
  • mechanism of preparation and modification of aliphatic polyesters and copolyesters

Polyimide-Polysiloxanes

Polyimides containing siloxane moieties are used in some advanced applications. For example, these polymers can be employed as separation membranes in the form of self-standing, thin films. These products are formed by components of different polarities that have the tendency, at least partly, to separate in the final materials, with an impact on their final, bulk, and/or surface properties.
